Resize images to exact dimensions while optionally preserving aspect ratio.

Practical guide

How to use Image Resizer

Image Resizer creates a new image at exact pixel dimensions. It is useful for thumbnails, profile images, CMS limits, email assets, and responsive-image preparation.

Step by step

  1. Choose an image and review its original dimensions.
  2. Enter a new width or height and keep aspect ratio enabled unless intentional stretching is required.
  3. Select a format, resize, inspect the preview, and download the result.

Example

Input2400 × 1600 image resized to 1200 px wide
Result1200 × 800 image when aspect ratio is preserved

How it works

The source is decoded and redrawn onto a Canvas with high-quality image smoothing. The new canvas is then encoded as PNG, JPEG, or WebP.

Important limitations

  • Enlarging an image cannot recreate detail absent from the source.
  • Very large output dimensions are limited to protect memory and browser stability.

Frequently asked questions

Why did the height change when I edited width?

Keep aspect ratio calculates the matching dimension to prevent stretching.

Does resizing remove metadata?

Canvas re-encoding normally drops original metadata; use Metadata Remover when that is the explicit goal.
